I feel like a spectator at this point. Fully aware of how the system operates and powerless to affect change without grave consequences. Materially, I'm secure. Not reproducing, so I don't have offspring to care about their future. Fuck this timeline, maybe I'll get to return at a cooler time.

Every indivual can actually make a change, you have to realize (and more importandly appreciate) that taking small steps is equally as important to make big impact.
